Explanation:

Heredity, or genetic inheritance, is a biological mechanism for transmitting characteristics from one individual to another (from parent to child specifically). The "bridge" that transmits such information is the gene, so everything happens in a genetic process.

Heredity is one of the foundations of genetics, a branch of biology that studies how biological inheritance occurs. This is how certain characteristics that differentiate a group are transmitted from one individual to another. A typical example of this phenomenon are the characteristics you have in common with your parents, such as eye color, hair texture, blood type and others.

dna fingerprinting is defined as a process that determines the dna characteristics of an individual. these dna characteristics are unique among individuals as their fingerprints, so it is known as dna fingerprinting.

steps of dna fingerprinting includes extraction of dna from sample, amplification of dna, restriction digestion of amplified dna, and then analysis of dna by gel electrophoresis, respectively.

thus, the next step performed by the scientist is 'to cut the amplified dna (obtained by polymerase chain reaction) by restriction enzymes that cleave the dna into fragments and their analysis.'
